Guitar of the Day: 1973 Fender Jazz Bass Sunburst | Norman's Rare Guitars

[@bapt_andthebasses]

Bring back Greg!! He has feeling for these demos

[@w13rdguy]

So humble, so unassuming, so proficient with the weapon of choice. How lucky are we, for the heyday of NRG!

[@brisleeadams]

Great playing as usual, Greg! Very cool!

[@kenalee1045]

So beautiful.. fender jazz bass, with black string... really love it

[@blakehamilton9769]

Greg’s an awesome player

[@TheRockyhockey007]

man that guy can play , it's always cool to hear the bass alone because it's always drowned out by the drums and guitar , great J bass , looks awesome with the black binding and inlays , very well done lad

[@blakehamilton9769]

Super cool bass too

[@cre8alotdesignjohnaydelott770]

That’s the most bad ass bass guitar I have ever seen or heard.

[@archieguitarz4700]

Truth!

[@WilDBeestMF]

Jazz basses are absolutely badass.

[@gezor20]

Sounds great old school cool, really like the drop d at the end!!!

[@mattrogers1946]

Wow, that was sweet! Thanks Greg!

[@tomtompkins7546]

Just think of all the funk that's been played on a jazz bass. Especially a 1973 jazz bass.

[@larrygundy5739]

Good to hear some Chris Squire. Good work

[@davemeshamsr6000]

Sounds great

[@Smagledorf]

[@ajsteven]

I have one, in unplayed, nearly brand-new condition. Got it from a pawn shop 7 years ago for $2200...with the case.

[@ultimatebasses]

Nice one. And to think Geddy's main Jazz bass is a 72'. Thanks Greg, Lemmo and Jen!

[@patf2444]

[@howard5508]

Nice. 🎇

[@94jcherokee]

Killer J bass/ Ampeg sound !! Gotta get that RATM in there!! Timmy C's a beast! Freedom by Rage Against the Machine @ 7:48 . In case anybody is wondering.

[@EricMiller630]

No. F-ing. Way! A 70s Fender bass. Unbelievable!! Truly never before seen at Norms

[@DrGregC]

I'm a bass player and now I really look forward to hearing Greg play on Thursdays. I am a Fender loyalist with a Tony Franklin fretted P as my number one. I am intrigued by other basses but don't really know them. Why don't you have Greg play a 4003 Rick, a MM Stingray, a G&L L-2000, maybe even a Sadowsky or Lakland bass to pique my interest in something without a Fender logo!

[@dundaravewine2390]

As long as Greg is around do we even need Michael on Thursdays?

[@michaelhiggs8657]

I love thumping Thursday, but it would be nice to see something other then a Fender once in a while. Burns, , Yamaha (TRB) , Specter or something really rear like an Overwater would be nice.

[@gregcoates4281]

I’ll go for a walk when I’m in there next and see what weirdness/oddballs I can find-I’d love to play a Wal or an old Guild Starfire,maybe an Alembic?

[@michaelhiggs8657]

@@gregcoates4281 Thank's thw warrick streamer's a great bass as well.

[@gregcoates4281]

[@lpluva1]

Just a little dash of TOOL at the end, perfect.

[@thalesmorais]

The last one I think was Rage Against the machine

[@lpluva1]

@@thalesmorais it is.

[@VioletSpaceship]

The playing and tone was fantastic, well done! What strings are those?

[@gregcoates4281]

Not 100% sure,but I think they’re DR’s maybe?

[@ajsteven]

Aston “Family Man” Barrett played this exact bass.....

[@davemeshamsr6000]

How much or is it sold already?

[@derael61]

dude reminds me of Gordon Ramsey! him a raise!

[@gregcoates4281]

I LOVE GORDON RAMSAY!!!

[@GarySixSixty]

[@davemeshamsr6000]

R u using a pedal?

[@gregcoates4281]

For the overdrive tones I used an Ibanez Tube King,great pre-amp/overdrive The chorus sound is a GNI(Brazilian) Analog Dual Stereo Chorus

[@davemeshamsr6000]

Just checked website don’t see this...

[@DojoOfCool]

Not a big fan of block inlays and especially don't like block inlays on maple neck black or white. For me like no inlays just side markers or if inlays just dots.

[@marcogarciaphoto]

chingadera!?!??!?!?! LOL!

[@MissChrissyM1]

Excellent thank you 😊 gents. Rocking that bass guitar 🎸
